¡Bienvenidos, vecinos!
I'm Candela Moreno, organizing bilingual health clinics and potlucks where we talk diabetes prevention over mofongo and salsa. My focus stays here on Earth, on families who need fresh produce, mental health resources, and connection.
Upcoming Workshops

This base fuels our health talks and food drives. Connects us to Puerto Rico while we build wellness here.
Why local first
Multi-planet dreams belong to engineers. My work is ensuring every abuela in Mott Haven has a ride to the clinic and a neighbor who checks in after the workshop. That's the real infrastructure.
